The wonderful White Hart

Advantages: Great food and lovely place
Disadvantages: Only 1 of them!

...The White Hart, Lydgate, Manchester Going back many many moons (well okay approximately 10 years) the White Hart Inn in Lydgate was your bog standard, not very nice run of the mill typical English pub. It was then purchased by two nice gentlemen; one an extraordinarily talented chef and the other a wonderful business man and hey presto 10 years later you have one of the most thriving 'gastro pubs' in the country that people travel for miles around to come and eat at and has won award upon award. This is a wonderful place to drink and eat where the staff are friendly and knowledgeable, the food is excellent and the surroundings spectacular. Where is it? The White Hart Inn is located in Lydgate Saddleworth and is approximately 15 miles from city centre Manchester and is only about 10 minutes drive from the M62 and is not far...

Review of The White Hart

White Hart Hotel in Lincoln

Advantages: Close to Historical Landmarks, Friendly Staff, Good Rooms, Stylish
Disadvantages: Expensive Breakfast, Some parts need Refurbishment

...I am writing his review from my White Hart hotel room and in my opinion this is quite an above average hotel. I arrived here with my family (Mum and Dad) yesterday. It was pretty easy to find and get here from Leeds where we spent the day out, just off the A15, but in the next 2 hours when we check out we will be taking the A46 to return home (Reading). The hotel provides their own parking just round the side of the hotel, with a small bay which cars strictly shouldn't stay in at all, but seems to be used by taxis to drop people off. Upon arrival we were greeted by very pleasant reception staff who knew a lot about the local area. Asking about local restaurants they informed us about the various Italian, Mexican, Thai, Chinese, English Pubs and all about the restaurant they have which was very helpful. Even though a fair few must...

Review of The White Hart, Lincoln

The White Hart, Lincoln

Advantages: Good setting, salubrious interior
Disadvantages: expensive, poor service

...Despite living in Lincoln, I have only the one experience of the White Hart. My cricket club had it's annual presentation dinner there last year. Location Set in the beautiful, historic uphill Bailgate area in the city centre, The White Hart is in the shadow of the magnificent Lincoln Cathedral. This means it is in the upmarket area of the city, meaning that the prices are higher than if it were elsewhere in the city. Prices It has to be said that the prices are high. We paid £27 for the ticket and this included a 3 course meal and nothing else. At the bar before I bought a round of drinks (two pints of lager and a large glass of white) and it came to a shade over £10. This, to me is quite expensive. Food The food was not the highest quality - indeed for the price we paid it was distinctly below average. The starter...

Review of Macdonald White Hart Hotel, Salisbury

Beth Hart - she's more than just a screaming tirade of songs

Advantages: Extremely distinctive vocals, even unforgettable; some quality tracks
Disadvantages: 2nd half of the album tails off a bit in some respects

...CD Review: ?Screamin' For My Supper? ? Beth Hart (1999) Beth Hart? Isn?t she a little more rockier than your usual fare? Well, yes, she is ? regular readers of my reviews will have by now detected that I?m fond of Americana, roots, alt-blues, alt-country and alt-folk female singer-songwriters, with the odd shot of electronica thrown in for good measure, but I?ve also been known to supplement this diet quite often with hefty slices of out and out rock, especially when they come complete with an absolutely killer of a voice ? just like Beth Hart?s whiskeyed-tones. Tell the truth, though, I wasn?t entirely sure I?d go for this album as much as I did ? it initially sounded too much like ?rock? for my tastes. However, dipping in a track at a time recently, I?ve come to love it ? and now wonder why I ever doubted Beth?s talents...

Marble Hart Ltd House signs Stunning!

Advantages: Brilliant service, quick to deliver, very helpful.
Disadvantages: having to purchase fixings seperately

...Searching.... Having just completed building our new house I wanted a sign that would look the part, so I set about looking on the internet, and in the garden centres to try and find something that would be fitting. The Company. I ended up on good old E-bay searching one evening and found a company called Marble Hart, they had a massive 6700 100% feedbacks so I thought that they must be ok to deal with and started my search. The Company are based in Nottingham, They have a website www.marblehart.com Price Price was the most important thing, as I could not afford to spend lots of money, but on the other hand I wanted something stunning for my pennies, and of good quality. I also wanted a big sign that could be seen from the road, but did not look tacky! I did not want wood, or plastic I wanted something of quality, well I found...

Review of Marble Hart Engraved House Signs

A lovely but maybe slightly over priced hotel

Advantages: unique, lovely area
Disadvantages: expensive, slightly dated

...This hotel is in an excellent location which is why they can charge the prices they do. The hotel is steeped in history and you can tell just by looking at the building of it's age and the stories it could tell if it could. Lincoln is a great place to visit and it's main tourist area is the Steep Hill area of the city. It is called Steep Hill for a reason- it is very steep! There are lots of little tea rooms, gift shops and an award winning restaurant or two in this location. Right in the heart of this is the cathedral and the castle and a stone's throw from them? The Whit Hart hotel. The White Hart was built in the 14th century as a coaching inn and since then has grown and become a very well known hotel with customers coming back year after year. What are the rooms like? Rooms vary but all are well equipped, however...

Review of The White Hart, Lincoln

Over-hyped hotel

Advantages: nice evening meals
Disadvantages: expensive, in need of paint!

...Mrs B and I met in Lincoln many moons ago when we were just 18 and so it holds many happy memories and we decided to celebrate one of our anniversaries by returning to Lincoln and treating ourselves by staying in the infamous White Hart Hotel. All the time that we used to live in Lincoln this hotel was well known for it's so-called excellence and you had to be 'somebody' to be able to afford to stay there so when it came to our anniversary we thought we would really splash out and have a luxurious weekend in this hotel. Needless to say we were disappointed. I think in terms of Lincoln this hotel is something special but not compared to other hotels in different areas. Lincoln, we always joke, is behind in the times and so maybe this hotel does seem very posh and well to do to good old Lincoln folk like we used to be but it really...

Review of The White Hart, Lincoln

The River Runs Dead (Boring)

Advantages: Mildly interesting plot, faintly evocative descriptions.
Disadvantages: Clumsy dialogue, implausible events, horrible writing of characters.

...If you like your thrillers slickly written and sharply observed, don?t read Down River. If you appreciate acute characterisation and believable action, don?t read Down River. Enjoy engaging dialogue, convincing back-stories and clever plotting? Probably best you don?t read Down River. However, if none of the above applies, and you prefer clumsily written mysteries, a worn-out thesaurus and plot holes you can climb through, then by all means, this is a book to savour. Some books and films (and people, for that matter) have quite mystifying levels of success, and John Hart?s second novel is very much one of these. I?m not sure whether Richard & Judy?s Summer Reads is a mark of high-calibre literature, but they make some pretty solid choices, more or less. This being ?less?. Down River is a tale of murder, more murder and comin...
